Rivers Edge

Rivers Edge is 24 acres of forest on the banks of the Leven River in Gunns Plains, Tasmania. We are in our own little valley surrounded by tall forests. Preston Creek flows all year through our property and meets the large Leven River where your campsite is situated. Perfect for trout fishing, platypus watching, bird watching or catching the sun setting through the trees on the river bend. There are even the endangered black fresh water crayfish.

The site is large enough for up to 5-6 caravans for large bookings, and we only take one booking at a time, so its exclusively yours.

We are only 20km to the nearest town, Ulverstone which as everything you need. 

The road is close by the campsite with easy access to find the property. No toilet facilities at the site. Sat TV is good and limited mobile reception. Telstra works best we've found. 

River access over a rocky, uneven embankment as it's a natural, untouched environment, just how we and the native animals like it. 

Campfires ONLY PERMITTED when fire restrictions aren't in place. You absolutely must make sure your campfire is fully extinguished before you leave.

Please check "My Trips" (in your profile) for directions once confirmed. Look for the 'Rivers Edge' sign on the entrance gate, then you know youve got the right site and not the neigbours property (which is along side mine on the river)

Well behaved dogs are welcome but must be kept with you at all times, no roaming dogs as the road is close by.  

We love the peace and serenity here so please no unruly behaviour or parties.

Due to shortage of personnel, we can no longer offer the farm tours. Hope this will change coming season 2024/25. But hipcampers are welcome to have a walk on the farm. 

We are working together with other organic certified farmers. They lease parts of our land to grow vegetables. Hipcampers are welcome to have a walk around their crops as well.

Big news: we have started to build a tearoom with possibilities to organise herbal workshops and give education about growing and using medicinal herbs. . It will also have a shop and space to enjoy light refreshments, organic coffee, chocolate, juice and herbal tea. 

Extra bathroomfacilities will be available to our hipcampers only. 
Hope to have it finished season 2025/26.
